Typically we plan our weekends, keeping some time free for unplanned events, and this weekend was no exception. On Thursday Dad's reclining chair started playing up and Andy & I made a temporary repair, planning to make a permanent one Saturday morning. Angie & John were planning on visiting Mum & Dad this weekend. I planned to go out on a ride-out with fellow Deauville owners on Sunday. And so on....
So what happened? John got a tummy bug and couldn't venture more than a few feet from a loo, so driving from Colchester to Derby was out of the question. Various events in Andy's schedule conspired so that the repair to Dad's chair didn't happen until late Saturday afternoon. And the weather changed to cold with blustery snow showers so the ride-out to the Ponderosa cafe was called off.
So Suzie did the supermarket shop at ASDA on Saturday while I stayed home and did the laundry. When she returned I washed and chammied off her car so that it again shines like new. This afternoon she visited her parents (with Mark) and showed them the photos from our Malaga trip. We've spent time in front of the TV with Suzie catching up on recorded programmes. Andy has gone down with what we think is Measles (Mark had them a couple of weeks ago at the start of his exams) but should be OK for work tomorrow.
So what are the plans for the coming week? Flexible, due to the forecast for more snow and inclement weather. Still, best make the most of the coming week, it's my last of having to find my own entertainment and keeping my own company through the day. Thank goodness for that.
